Processor: Intel Core i7-3770 CPU 3.40GHZ 4 cores (8 threads that show up as cores.)(This is first generation and was ahead of games [being that they requires ussually around 2.2 ghz])
Ram: used to be 4 gigabytes but then magically grew to 8 (8GB DIMM DDR3 clocked @ 1600 MHz)
Storage: WDC WD10EZEX-60ZFa5 (An older HD 1 terabyte.)
Honestly, you're doing fairly well. This is a pretty good mid-price range computer, granted at the time it was built it was probably pretty high-grade stuff. It's about as well off (actually a little better I think, I don't know how GPUs match up but I think yours is stronger than mine was) than the computer I built in school a few years ago, and that computer can still run some new games, granted on lower settings.
Graphics card: AMD Radeon R9 200 series

Looking to update for computer science classes. Probably graphics but I don't know how old my processor is, probably 4-5 years.
Not too bad to be honest. 270 is still a strong card for gaming. Skylake is still a great intel chipset.

Helping raise Dragons
isn't a huge pain! Just
give 'em a click!
It's a bit old but still a mid-range PC. Absolutely fine unless you're running The Witcher 3 at 4k ultra.
